Lyrics
Español
Becho toca el violín en la orquesta, cara de chiquilín sin maestra, y la orquesta no sirve, no tiene más que un solo violín que le duele. Porque a Becho le duelen violines que son como su amor, chiquilines. Becho quiere un violín que sea hombre, que al dolor y al amor no los nombre. Becho tiene un violín que no ama, pero siente que el violín lo llama, por la noche como arrepentido, vuelve a amar ese triste sonido. Mariposa marrón de madera, niño violín que se desespera, cuando Becho lo toca y se calma, queda el violín sonando en su alma. Porque a Becho le duelen violines que son como su amor, chiquilines; Becho quiere un violín que sea hombre, que al dolor y al amor no los nombre. Vida y muerte, violín, padre y madre; canta el violín y Becho es el aire; ya no puede tocar en la orquesta, porque amar y cantar eso cuesta.
English · machine translation
Becho plays the violin in the orchestra, a little boy's face without a teacher, and the orchestra is useless, he has but a single violin that hurts him. Because Becho is in pain with violins that are like his love, little boys. Becho wants a violin that is a man, that doesn't name pain and love. Becho has a violin that he doesn't love, but he feels the violin calling him, in the night as if repentant, he loves again that sad sound. Brown wooden butterfly, child violin that despairs, when Becho plays it and calms down, the violin remains sounding in his soul. Because Becho is in pain with violins that are like his love, little children; Becho wants a violin that is a man, that does not name pain and love. Life and death, violin, father and mother; the violin sings and Becho is the air; he can no longer play in the orchestra, because to love and to sing that costs.
